I keep a “journal” of sorts on all of my characters and flesh them out over time. If you don’t want to be influenced by my vision of what each character looks like, DO NOT PROCEED. But if you’re curious how they look in my head, here are some of the Dark Ones Maximus: The… Continue reading Who I Envision When I Develop Dark Longing

Hello readers!
This is Aja (pronounced Asia). Welcome to my site!
A bit about myself:
I’ve been writing stories since the age of six, and novels since the age of thirteen. Can’t say that those early efforts were particularly good, but I sure loved putting them down on paper! And whether I document them or not, stories are forever forming and expanding and interconnecting in my head.
The best part is–it’s completely organic, the way the stories develop. When the inspiration hits, I write just so I myself can learn where the characters are headed because oftentimes, they take me by surprise! It is my ultimate dream to become a best-selling novelist one day and share my stories with as many readers as I possibly can.
My other loves include art, cooking, old movies (anything with Audrey Hepburn, Marilyn Monroe, Robert Redford, Vivien Leigh, Elizabeth Taylor, Paul Newman, Clark Gable, and all the song and dance numbers because you can’t watch them and not be happy!)
I adore taking long walks with my husband and running after my two rambunctious kids. I have traveled extensively (all seven continents except Antarctica) and have a multi-cultural upbringing. I speak two and a half languages and binge watch TV shows when the mood strikes.
I love hearing from readers, so please contact me directly! Subscribe to this blog to get the latest news and updates and free chapters in upcoming books!
Ciao for now!
XOXO Aja James

And then it just flows naturally from there as if the story… Continue reading World Building – Pure/ Dark series

2 days to launch!! Prologue from Dark Longing (#2 Pure/ Dark Ones Series)
Vampire. That is what I and my Kind are called. Bloodsucker. Demon. Devil’s Spawn. Fiend. Incubus. Monster. I cannot say whether I am or am not these things. I suppose it depends on one’s point of view. To the humans whose blood, and sometimes souls, I take for survival, I suppose I might appear somewhat…… Continue reading 2 days to launch!!

No, it's not what you think. Get your head out of the gutter! 😛 I'm talking about me stuck amongst one large male of a husband and two tiny (soon to be large males) Gremlins.
